+Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs:
+
+    [import-main-matcher.cpp] After clicking/toggling A/U+C/C checkbox,
+        reselect the row because it'll be much faster to use keyboard
+        navigation -- use up/down/left/right to target desired checkbox,
+        hit <down> <space> repeatedly to repeat the same action over several
+        consecutive rows.
+    Implement support for !Type:Prices records in the QIF importer.
+    Modernize construction of GObjects using G_DECLARE_DERIVABLE, G_DECLARE_FINAL, etc.
+    Fix yet more leaks.
+    [DBI backend] Change DBI test URLs to environment variables from cmake
+        configuration definitions.
+    Restore the Stock Transaction Assistant to full operation.
+    Fix the Fancy Date file property so that it saves.
+    Fix formatting error in po files project-id line.
+    [simple-business-create.py] Overwrite an existing file instead of crashing.
+    Update github action package versions.
+    Add parsing mixed number and fraction (e.g. 10 1/2) to the gnc_numeric
+        string constructor.
+    Bump minimum cmake version to 3.14 and drop some conditionals for older
+        versions
+    Major speedup in the SQLBackend by replacing C++ exceptions with
+        std::optional for null values.
+    Refresh the GUI on completion of the import matcher so that the imports
+        are immediately reflected in the register.
+    Improve online quote retrieval error reporting.
+    Test loading and saving XML files with and without compression
+    [import-main-matcher] always defer_bal_computation during import to speed
+        up both importing new transactions, and destroying existing ones.
+    GncGtkListUIItem::set_option_from_ui_item: Iterate over selected items
+        Instead of all possible items.
+    Convert gnc-ofx-import.c, import-parse.c, import-utilities.c,
+        import-format-dialog.c, import-account-matcher.c,
+        import-commodity-matcher.c, import-settings.c,
+        import-pending-matches.c, import-match-picker.c, import-main-matcher.c,
+        and gnc-pricedb.c to .cpp
+    By default, filter out online_wiggle in test-gnc-quotes.
+        Running ./bin/test-gnc-quotes from the command line will still include
+        online_wiggle
+    Replace yahoo_json with alphavantage in test-gnc-quotes. yahoo_json is too
+        unstable.
+    Include timezone in price-quote date diagnostic messages.
